Harugokoro “Moromi” Junmai
Ishikawa prefecture
Cute and delicious
This adorably delicious sake may have more information about the cats Moro and Mi on the back, but is not to be missed for those who like light, slightly sweet, beautifully made sake. 901H is a type of yeast developed to produce more of the acid responsible for apple-like flavors, so this sake is juicy and easy on the palate. It’s simply a delicious sake you’ll want to keep drinking.
